Bon Homme "Mother"
New video from Good Boy! Creative for Bon Homme. Guess this is made for people who see alot of music videos.

Pretty funny if you are a music video nerd like us but i don't see the mass appeal.
funny. you could say the same of nima's green screen video, and yet it had wide appeal
I thought Romain Gavras directed the Born Free video? Clever idea though. Made me chuckle.
yes, surround - it's that de thurah's cast gingers more than once; double-whammy.
nice one.
This could've had so many more in jokes and could've been way better. The fact that they got the Gavras reference wrong is a big sour point. Also the pretty woman 2/moodyson opening didn't land well.
interesting idea; but I agree, 90% of people won't get it. When you do parodies of music video cliches, you need to parody big, mainstream videos. (Like this one for the Roots).
2 questions.
-
If the song was in English, why wasn't the dialogue? And, why not have a version with the dialogue over the song?
-
Is that really what the director thought the public would think a video commissioner would look like? It's 100% wrong in real life, and in my opinion, 95% wrong as a cliche. The guy should be some overtanned 40-something guy with a pony tail and blue tooth earpiece - not a Hollywood old-timer.
+1 for the simpsons refrence:
